| + | <p style="text-align:justify;">Samhanana means muscularity, firmness, solidity, strength or compactness of body. Classical texts and current research have shown the advantages of a compact body over the incompact body. Samhanana examination is included among the tenfold assessment of patients in Ayurveda. An excellent samhanana is a quality of excellent health. [Ast. Sa. Nidana Sthana 1/3]. Though samhanana and pramana seem similar entities but are different from each other. Pramana quantitatively expresses the magnitudes of human body parts, whereas samhnana expresses their compactness. A person with morbid obesity has a large pramana but most probably has least samhanana. Samhanana helps determine the person's constitution, strength and immunity; prognosis and management of diseases; and to assess excellence of body tissues. This chapter deals with the description of samhanana and its importance in healthcare. </p> |
